About

DeLand's star-studded vocal ensemble The Pinnacle Singers are thrilled to announce their return with a bold reimagining of Puccini’s iconic opera Turnadot. This groundbreaking and curious retelling will be performed in a limited-run at Central Florida locations in April and May.  This iconic work has been radically revised and reformed: it will be sung in English and performed in unexpected spaces offering audiences unprecedented access to a timeless masterpiece in an exciting new way. Go to the website for times and locations.

This extraordinary production starring Cass Panuska, Torlef Borsting, and Ashley Nunez accompanied by Giles Howe is not confined to a traditional opera house. Instead, it will be presented in a series of unexpected and intimate settings including:

 - A Secret Rural Florida Pop-Up Venue: Experience an unparallelled night where culture meets nature in a truly exclusive performance - only 25 tickets available - set against the unique backdrop of a rural sunset on a farm not far from the center of DeLand in a unique location to be disclosed only to ticket holders! April 19th 

 - A Downtown Cocktail Bar: Enjoy the magic of Puccini's final opera more up-close than ever before in the chic atmosphere of The Lounge at The Artisan Hotel in Downtown DeLand, the same venue where The Pinnacle Singers debuted. Be one of just 40 to enjoy a one-night-only exclusive performance with a full Cuban menu available and cocktails inspired by ancient China. April 20th 

 -Romanza Festivale: Experience Turandot performed in the sanctuary of the Ancient City Baptist Church as part of St. Augustine's annual celebration of its rich history and connection to culture - one of Florida's most anticipated cultural events. May 9th 

 - Northwest Square:  Spend an evening enjoying the show and discovering DeLand's trendiest entertainment and cultural hub where you can enjoy a variety of food and drinks in an especially revitalized district. Converted from a former Church, this grand venue is the largest in the production's run, so both the most wheelchair accessible and ideal for larger group bookings. May 10th
